Dec 2010
nineteen
the age of uncertainty
underdeveloped prefrontal cortex
development of morality

nineteen
inside, still a child
outside fully pubescent
on your own

nineteen
too young for the real thing
but slowly learning the landscape
to the world of adulthood

nineteen
the age of beauty
blossoming realizations
living

nineteen
the worlds not what it seems
experience things in a new way
that you never though existed

nineteen
the peak of psychological disorders
anxiety and depression
heartache
fear, instability
and restlessness

nineteen**
last year as a teen
a year filled with mystery
and hope

life
love
not a breath wasted
if you know how,
keep breathing
